Really waterproof and warm (and waterproof!) coats

I know this has been asked before but really would be grateful for recommendations. Even with waterproof spray my Seasalt one isn’t cutting it in this weather. Thank you!

No one has said Paramo yet- these are seriously outdoorsy, absolutely NOT stylish but are brilliantly waterproof whilst still being breathable!

Ah ok, thanks

You can always get old season Didrikson discounts. Which is bonkers because they aren’t a fashion item and they look exactly the same.

Paramo

I have a Páramo Halkon, I absolutely love it. Not high fashion but definitely functional, and they're breathable and less stiff and rustly than Gore-Tex. You have to treat them regularly with Nikwax but it's easy to do.

I have a coat obsession, depending on your budget if you want guaranteed performance look at Nørrona, Arc'teryx, Helly Hansen, Páramo, Mountain Equipment, Outdoor Research.
